This monstrous ring light features 64 oversized LEDs—that's 32 around the lens and an extra 16 on each flexible flank. With light approaching your subject from every visible angle, the Digi-Slave is a very simple way to eliminate shadow in macro photography.

Oh, and sure, a lightbox might do the same thing. But it's not nearly as portable, nor does it have that deadly deep sea creature look with the lights off. $360 [Digi-Slave via Core77]
